[Resolved] nvidia-open-dkms-580.95.05 fails to build on kernel 6.17.6

kernel: 6.17.6arch1-1
gpu: RTX 5060 nvidia gpu
wm: Hyprland

i recently update my system with
```pacman -Syu```

the kernel updated to 6.17.6 and the nvidia-open-dkms update to 580.98.05(previously 580.82.09)

and it failed which led many unwanted behaviour in my system like:
constant screen freezing, kernel panics.
(for now i switched to linux-lts with no nvidia drivers)

output when dkms updated

dkms install --no-depmod nvidia/580.95.05 -k 6.17.6-arch1-1
Error! Bad return status for module build on kernel: 6.17.6-arch1-1 (x86_64)

i checked the build log and found out that gcc is failing to compile the open-dkms drivers for the kernel version 6.17.6

currently im on linux-lts. but i can utilize my gpu which older drivers doesnt support the gpu.(it doesnt detect the device)

so far i've ran:
hyprland nvidia setup (which worked before the update)
pacman -Syu
dkms autoinstall
i even rolled back to nvidia-dkms instead of open one but it doesnt detect my current gpu.

Yeah, so much is kinda implied by the dkms error already.

Why are you not using https://archlinux.org/packages/extra/x8 … idia-open/ ?

Is the system in any way overclocked?

Undo all overclocking, make sure you're not running OOM (do you have a swap partition or file) and try again - it's possible that you're hitting some gcc bug but extremely unilkely.
Alternatively

# command: 'make' -j12 IGNORE_PREEMPT_RT_PRESENCE=1 NV_EXCLUDE_BUILD_MODULES='' KERNEL_UNAME=6.17.6-arch1-1 modules

cut back on the parallel jobs - try 8

The overclocking was the issue. the drivers finally build and its working. weird that was the problem anyways we can close this issue. thanks everyone

Please always remember to mark resolved threads by editing your initial posts subject - so others will know that there's no task left, but maybe a solution to find.
Thanks.
